Summary

Code for fitting Integrated Population Models was adapted from Kéry and Schaub (2012). The Goodness-of-Fit test for the egg-mass count state space model was based on Besbeas and Morgan (2014). Analyses were performed in R version 3.6.1 (R Core Team 2019). References: Besbeas, P. and Morgan, B.J., 2014. Goodness‐of‐fit of integrated population models using calibrated simulation.

Purpose

Data were obtained to calculate trends in the abundance of Foothill Yellow-legged Frogs and adult survival rates to build population models that can be used to inform conservation and management decisions.
